The Zoo loves to read and has a library of over 2,000 books.
With all the travelling we do and the limited van space, there’s usually only enough room for me to bring a book or two.
Definitely not enough.
It makes sense for me to have a Kindle Fire. It’s on my Christmas Wish List and I even own some ebooks.
Except, I don’t have one. Yet.
No, Ed is not being negligent. The deal that I’ve made with myself is that I have to win one. Note to self, change your mind.
Now’s My Our Chance!
Delightfully a new virtual gift-wrap service has teamed up with Happy Mothering and Green Moms Media to bring you a giveaway for a Kindle Fire and $40 Amazon Gift Card. Just in time for Christmas!
During the Holiday season, there are tons of gifts given online for music, gift cards, subscriptions, e-books and pretty much anything. If you’re anything like me, you’ve sent at least one online gift and likely will again before Christmas.
With Delightfully, you can create a special “unwrapping” moment for any gift occasion for friends and family who can’t spend the holidays with you in person. You can check out an example of the Delightfully gift-wrap on their website. At only $3, it’s a very nice way to personalize the otherwise impersonal online gift! Say goodbye to wasteful paper and tape and say hello to this, eco-friendly gift wrap alternative.
To thank you for taking the time to consider their virtual gift-wrapping service, Delightfully is offering you a chance to win a Kindle Fire and $40 Amazon.com gift card!
The Kindle Fire is thin, light and durable. It features:
- 1.2GHz processor and 1GB of RAM
- 8GB on-device storage with free unlimited cloud storage for all your Amazon content
- Apps such as Facebook, Netflix, Twitter, Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo!, HBO GO and Pandora
- Ultra-fast web browsing over built-in WiFi
- Kindle FreeTime: A free, personalized tablet experience just for kids that allows you to set daily screen limits and give access to appropriate content for each child

I learned that this service is just plain AMAZING and UNIQUE!!!! LOVE IT!
I could use this when I want to give a family member…especially my hubby…. a ‘homemade’ gift certificate for something like a pedicure or dinner/date, etc!
I would use this to make our overseas family feel like they’re not missing out on any special occasions!
I learned that there are different surprise templates to choose from. Can’t wait to give it a try and personalize my CardSwap gift card.

I would totally use this to send an e-gift card to my sister in law with pics of my boys as the wrap.

my nieces have kindles, but giving a gift card seems so boring. This is so much fun!
I’d use it to send surprise gifts (like kindle books and songs) to my kids to reward good grades or a Just Because I love you gift!
Oh wow, I might even use this for Christmas this year, $3 isn’t a terrible price and this seems like a great service.
Might as well try. I’ve been wanting to get one for my Mom. I’m good with my Samsung having Kobo. Sweet contest!
Would love this for my mom.
What a great idea!! I’d definitely use it for birthdays for my brother/sisters & inlaws and for my mom & dad’s anniversary. What a great service!
This is a great service – have pinned it so I can remember to use it for all the online gifts I give to my brother/sis in law, and mom/dad for birthdays/anniversaries.
Great Idea for E gift cards Thank you.
With the photos Thank you. Jerri Davis
How neat! I’d use it for all of our friends and family out of state!
This is a great idea
twittted this today, 30/11

I'd use it to give a gift to my sister. She'd love it!
I learned that you can cover your gift with photos and a personal greeting – gift recipients will uncover the gift as they remove photos and your personal greeting. Pretty neat!
wow, I learned that you could wrap an online gift
I learned you can ‘wrap’ your online gift and make it more exciting.
Cool. It makes egifts feel more personalized like real gifts
I learned that there are different surprise templates to choose from 🙂
Thanks for the chance to win!
I’m giving a whole bunch of people e-subscriptions to magaznes for the Holidays and we’re giving my Grandparents a trip. This would be the perfect way to “wrap” these.
I also learned about the wrap feature for online gifts..too cute.
I learned that this service is easy to use and wonderful for any person

I love this idea! Most of my relatives live in other provinces so this is such a neat service 🙂
I have many friends overseas and could send many ‘gifts’
I learned that you can wrap an online gift with Delightfully – what a great idea. (mkileysweeney@hotmail.com)
you can hand wrap your online gift card to someone
I think it’s unique that there is an online gift that feels like a real gift
That’s really neat! I would design wrapping paper with my children’s pictures on it to send virtual gifts to their grandparents! babysitter2011(at)hotmail(dot)ca
I learned that it would be just like unwrapping a present-online-which i have never hea rd of anything like it before
What a neat idea, I would use the service to display gifts to grandparents that live far away of gifts my daughters make and then cover them up with photos of my girls. What an awesome idea
This is an innovative service, much more unique then an email for sure!
I learned you can wrap your gift online 🙂
i think it’s a great thing for people who live distances away from each other, a way for them to keep in touch.
Really great idea 🙂
I love that there are so many different great ways to “wrap up” an online gift!
I’d def. use this for gifts for family, so many live far away & don’t get the special gifts & time, so they deserve this
I would use this for our overseas relatives!
This would be great to use for my husband’s family which live in another state.
That is a unique & more fun then emails
I like how it can be something as simple as a map with a note attached to it, as well as photo collages and such.
You can add up too 15 of your own photos
What a cool idea Delightfully is! I like how open ended it is – you can really be creative. : )
Too cool! I had never heard of Delightfully. It looks like a really fun and creative way to give virtual gifts (like eBooks and online gift cards).
I love the things you can do with your photos! Brilliant!
You can cover the virtual gift card with up to 15 of your own photos… what a VERY cool idea! Gift cards CAN be personal! 🙂
I think it’s pretty cool how u can use your Facebook pics to use on Delightfully! How unique!!
My ex-husband lives really far away, so this is a great option for my kids to send gifts for the holidays and other special occasions…since we are really bad about buying and/or mailing things late.
I have many online friends who live rather far away from me and I’d definitely use Delightfully to send them their gifts because that would be more fun than a plain old email saying I sent them a birthday or holiday gift.
I could use it in the future to announce a future pregnancy!
On average, it takes 2-3 minutes to create your digital gift wrap (about the time it takes to wrap a gift in paper and tape).
I learned you can cover your gift with up to 15 of your photos!
Love the the wrap feature

AWESOME!

It looks so easy to use , could really send some amazing things to my family
love that you could add pictures to your gift
I think that it would make the “virtual” gift giving more of a personalized experience.
I learned that you can give any gift. They have a selection you can pick from, or you can load a gift that you purchased elsewhere. You can even send a gift that just a poem (love letter, IOU, a promise to go on a date night, etc.) or a notification of something that you have purchased yourself, but are not able to send them yet (trip, an item that has a future release date, etc.).
I think the service would add to the “thought” that one puts into a gift.
What a great way to personalize gift cards! I always hate giving them because they are so generic but this changes all that.
What a great idea! We’ve got lots of family three provinces away, and this service would be really neat.
I learned that there are different surprise templates to choose from. Can’t wait to give it a try and personalize my CardSwap gift card.
I love this! I can use it for all the shopping I will do online for family and friends!
